“The forgotten giant of American poetry . . . For those who would discover Jeffers . . . this is the place to start—and a place to return again and again.” —Tim Hunt, Washington State University Robinson Jeffers (1887-1962) is not only the greatest poet that the American West has produced but also a major poet of the twentieth century in the tradition of American prophetic poetry. This anthology serves as an introduction to Jeffers’s work for the general reader and for students in courses on American poetry. Jeffers composed each volume of his verse around one or two long narrative or dramatic poems. The Wild God of the World follows this practice: in it, Cawdor, one of Jeffers’s most powerful narratives, is surrounded by a representative selection of shorter poems. At the end of the book, the editor has provided revealing statements about Jeffers’s poetry and poetics, and about his philosophy of nature and human nature. “Of all the poets of his generation, [Robinson Jeffers] made our relation to this earth and sea and sky and wheeling seasons and the evolutionary processes that made trees and salmon runs and hunting hawks, his subject. As that relation grows more troubled, his words become more necessary. To have this beautifully edited and freshly seen anthology is a gift.” —Robert Hass, University of California, Berkeley

Tanus is the fair-haired young lion of a warrior whom the gods have decreed will lead Egypt's army in a bold attempt to reunite the Kingdom's shattered halves. But Tanus will have to defy the same gods to attain the reward they have forbidden him, an object more prized than battle's glory: possession of the Lady Lostris, a rare beauty with skin the color of oiled cedar--destined for the adoration of a nation, and the love of one extraordinary man. International bestselling author Wilbur Smith, creator of over two dozen highly acclaimed novels, draws readers into a magnificent, richly imagined Egyptian saga. Exploding with all the drama, mystery, and rage of ancient Egypt, River God is a masterpiece from a storyteller at the height of his powers.

"There are no machine guns, or cameras, here." Any God Will Do is a collection that investigates the lines between worldliness and asceticism, belief and delusion, chance and design, desire and its transcendence. Internal and end rhyme structure these pithy and compact poems that are rife with classical, pop culture, and poetic allusions. They culminate in an argument that intimacy and creation through language are not only possible within a capitalist framework, but indeed may be the only ballasts we know.

Jack London's 'The Call of the Wild & White Fang' is a compelling dual-narrative exploring the untamed wilderness and the instinctual drive for survival. The first story follows Buck, a domestic dog forced into the harsh life of a sled dog during the Klondike Gold Rush, while the second story delves into the life of White Fang, a wild wolf-dog hybrid struggling to find his place in a brutal world. London's vivid descriptions and raw emotion make these tales resonate with readers of all ages, showcasing the timeless theme of man versus nature. The juxtaposition of domestication and wildness creates a thought-provoking narrative that lingers with the reader long after the final page. Jack London's own experiences as a adventurer and sailor in the Yukon Territory undoubtedly influenced the setting and tone of his stories. His deep connection to the natural world shines through in his writing, capturing the essence of survival and resilience in the face of adversity. I highly recommend 'The Call of the Wild & White Fang' to those who enjoy tales of adventure, survival, and the indomitable spirit of the wilderness. London's masterful storytelling and profound insights make this book a timeless classic that continues to captivate readers around the world.
